PaulaJK Posted May 10, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 10, 2023 We are sailing Mariner in late August, embarking in Venice/ Fusina. It seems that we check in @Marittima/ Marine Terminal. #1 - Do they take your luggage from there? #2- Is there a transfer service to Fusina and if so, what? We chose to go into Venice a few days early..which seems to be confusing things for us. If we had chosen the Hilton, these transfers, of course, would be included. We anticipate private pay but now I am wondering if that is possible…the check in to Fusina Being very challenging. Your experiences or any recommendations would be appreciated.

GOARMY Posted May 10, 2023 #2 Share Posted May 10, 2023 PaulaJK: Based on past experiences in Venice/Fusina--one pre, and one-post-Pandemic: Here is simplest and best recommendation. Stuff continually changes as to any Port. Venice is a prime example. Long-gone are the days (early in the morning) when we transited The Canal, at-about 2 knots, gliding past St. Marks Square enroute to docking two kilometers from city center. Therefore: DO NOT rely on anecdotal comments on this Site. They are worth what you pay for them, mine included. Direct your questions directly to your Travel Agent--hopefully someone who has actual experience not-only putting clients aboard Regent ships; but being on those ships. If this is not an option: Contact Regent directly. You have plenty of time to have these questions answered. I cannot over-emphasize this enough. You are paying for this trip; that includes getting specific information DIRECTLY from Regent on each and every matter outlined in your message. In the interim, others may chime in. GOARMY!

PaulaJK Posted May 10, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Thank you for your reality based recommendation. I telephone Regent who stated that they transfer all passengers to Fusina after check in. I will check this a second time as rep had to put me on hold to learn this plus thought that Mariner sailed at 5 pm/ unnerving. We have cruised into and out of Venice but Fusina plus mobility issues now make this seem daunting to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Techno123 Posted May 10, 2023 #4 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Paula have you read the Regent response from Jenn T on this thread - it seems to answer your query 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulaJK Posted May 11, 2023 Author #5 Share Posted May 11, 2023 This is very helpful. Not to be snarky, but they should give the notice to their telephone receptionists, several of whom have no clue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
